GATE 2020

☞Rule-6   Abstract nouns usually take singular verbs. Examples Truth eventually prevails. Hatred has no limit. The fragrance of this perfume is so overpowering. ☞Rule 7.   When sentences start with “there” or “here,” the subject will always be placed after the verb, so care needs to be taken to identify it correctly. Examples: There are four hurdles to jump. Here are the keys. There is a problem with the balance sheet. Here are the papers you requested. ☞Rule 8.   Titles of books, movies, novels, etc. are treated as singular and take a singular verb. E.g. The Burbs is a movie starring Tom Hanks.

E.g. Standing in the water was a bad idea. Swimming in the ocean and playing drums are my hobbies. ☞Rule ...

SUBJECT AND VERB AGREEMENT) ☞Rule-1   When a lot of, a great deal of, plenty of, most of and some of refer to plural numbers, a plural verb is used. E.g. A lot of people were present in the party. Some of the students were absent. But, if these expressions refer to an amount, the verb is in the singular number. E.g. A lot of work has to be completed before we go. A great deal of work has been finished. ☞Rule-2  When the percentage or a part of something is mentioned with plural meaning the plural verb is used. E.g. 30 % of Indian women are literate. ☞Rule-3   Barracks, Headquarters, Whereabouts, Alms, Species, Sheep, News, Deer, Premises, Shambles etc. remain same in singular as well as plural form. E.g.-The company’s headquarters is based in New York. They tried to disrupt communications between the two headquarters. ☞Rule-4   In sports, while referring to the players, the name of the country is followed by plural verb. E.g. England have won the World...

In this topic, you have to study the working of 555 Timer IC and the role of various terminals. After getting a basic idea of working you can understand how to realize the Mos-stable and Astable Multivibrator using 555 Timer IC. You have to learn about the time period and duty cycle of these multivibrators. If you can follow this post and study the topics mentioned in detail then I don’t think there will be any question in Analog Electronics that will trouble you. But make sure to change the mindset and approach this subject from Network Analysis point of view rather than Electronic Devices.

     This chapter begins with the study of Differential Amplifiers and then the basic characteristics of Op-Amp such as Offset Voltage and Current, Bias Current, Slew Rate, CMRR, SVRR, etc. Then you have to study about the differences between Ideal and Practical Op-amp. Also, study the model of the practical op-amp which includes Input Resistance and Output Resistance also. Then comes the most important concept in Op-Amp which is the concept of Virtual Ground. Based on this concept you have to understand the concept of Inverting Amplifier, Non-Inverting Amplifier, Inverting Summer, Non-Inverting Summer, Differentiator, Integrator, Current to Voltage Converter, Voltage Follower, etc. You should be able to solve any random circuit including Op-Amp using this concept.       Then you have to study the non-linear applications of Op-Amp such as Precision Diode, Half Wave Rectifier, Full Wave Rectifier, Log Amplifier, and Anti-log amplifier. Then using t...

If you are clear about the analysis of BJT then understanding MOSFET should be a cakewalk. You have to start from the same point where you started BJT from that is the basics of the device and the current-voltage equation. Then based on characteristics of the device you have to understand the different operating regions of MOSFET which are cut-off, Linear and Saturation. Then you can move onto the biasing techniques of MOSFET which are identical to BJT but the main difference is that Gate current is zero due to insulator between gate and device. After the biasing you can study about the small-signal model of the device and the best part is that there is only one model that you have to study which is the Hybrid-pi model and you have to understand the amplifier analysis using this model. Also, you must know how to derive certain parameters like Trans-conductance and Output Resistance using DC Analysis. Again you will derive the same parameters as in BJT which are Voltage Gain, Inpu...
